Timo !!!!Thanks very much ! It would have taken me a lot of time over a period of a month or more to have come close, and probably I would have given up .... to try again another year !

Yikes I just can't believe it. ;D ;D I think it is an understatement: you really know your stuff ! You are more capable, and willing to share your expertise than I often see in forums. Usually in forums elsewhere (on all subjects) the responder is either capable and not helpful, or helpful but not capable enough to help very much!

Any forum lucky enough to have your regular participation, has a lot of lucky forum members.

I will be playing with over the next couple days....... and come back with more comment.

Just super. It will help so much with making console apps better looking, and interesting to work with using C. Can't say enough !!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again,

Ed

Demonstrating my appreciation for your help (by my quick get-back). Here is the project and source files I can contribute to the forum.A working example project with a custom icon resource.

I'm trying to get this to work in Visual Studio 2017. The generated EXE runs and says "Cool Work Timo. Best Icon loaded", but doesn't change the console icon. Is it possible it doesn't work in 64 bit WIN10?

I'm new to VS (and very rusty in C), am I supposed to set these options somewhere?
